The Good Governance PartnershipAuthor: Good Governance Partnership
Is Good Governance a value or a principle that stands for itself, autonomously, without any link to other aspects of a states organization? Or is good governance rather an integral part of each sector in which policy decisions are made? We will address these questions in this monthly series, step by step, by looking at the key challenges, the application of Good Governance principles is facing in the context of crisis. This is to show that Good Governance is more, than a means to itself. It is a requirement for success, sustainability, and growth. Martin El-Khouri welcomes you all!

Aspirations and Perspectives of Youth from the Middle East - A discussion with 3 Young Leaders Shan Sherwan Hussein, Basel Al Madhoun and Fadel Saleh chaired by Martin El-Khouri
Sunday, 10 January, 2021
The Middle East and North Africa is one of the most important regions in the world; rich in natural resources and has strategic position connecting with different parts of the world. However, the region is doomed with the spread of bad governance and conflict. With one of the youngest populations in the world, the MENA region can unleash a strong growth potential by increasing economic opportunities for its youth and reducing youth unemployment, currently the highest in the world at 29%. Enrollment in tertiary education has seen impressive progress with over a 190% increase in the number of university students since 2000. The region’s young and well-educated population is a solid base for future and strong economic development. The Youth talents, resources, perspectives and energy are still significantly untapped in the region. Youth and women are valuable assets in both developing and implementing development policies in the region. As part of the Middle East Month, this webinar will address questions related to the youth and engagements aspects of countries of the region and potential scenarios that can transform the region. The Webinar hosts a panel of experts and bring a fresh perspective into the debate on perspective and aspiration of Youth in the MENA region.
